Detailed explanation-1: -Yes / No questions are also called closed questions because there are only two possible responses: Yes or No. When forming a Yes / No question, it must include one of these verbs: BE, DO, HAVE, or a modal verb. It is impossible to ask a Yes / No question without one of these verbs. Are elections next year?
Detailed explanation-2: -To excel at the game of 20 questions, it is extremely useful to know “the science” of game theory and Design of Experiments. Choose each of your questions so that there will be a 50/50 likelihood that the answer to the question will be “Yes.” That way you will learn as much as possible with each question.
Detailed explanation-3: -We form yes-no questions with an auxiliary verb (be, do or have) + subject + main verb or with a modal verb + subject + main verb: Be: Is she working very hard? Were they travelling together? Do: Does that taste okay?
Detailed explanation-4: -Only 20 questions are allowed, each phrased so that it may be answered “yes” or “no.” The winner is the person who guesses the correct answer; if there is no correct guess, the answerer is the winner. The game may be played one against all or between two opposing teams.
